Edwardian era love, society and politics explored in this perfect read for Downton Abbey fans.

Sebastian is young, handsome and romantic, the heir to a vast and beautiful English country estate. He is a fixed feature in the eternal round of lavish parties, intrigues and traditions at the cold, decadent heart of Edwardian high society. Everyone knows the role he must play, but Sebastian isn''t sure he wants the part. Position, privilege and wealth are his, if he can resist the lure of a brave new world.
